Ellie

Meet Ellie, a resilient and loving 2-3-year-old beauty with a heartwarming story. Ellie's journey began as a stray, pregnant and bearing the marks of a difficult past, evident in the strangulation marks on her neck. Despite the hardships she has faced, Ellie's spirit remains unbroken, and her capacity for love is boundless. This sweet soul has found solace in her foster home, where she has blossomed into a truly affectionate companion. Ellie's warm and gentle nature extends to everyone she meets, showcasing her remarkable resilience and forgiving spirit. Her love knows no bounds, and she has a special affinity for the company of both humans and other dogs. In her foster home, Ellie has formed a particularly strong bond with Sia, a catahoula mix, and enjoys the camaraderie of her furry friends. She loves engaging in playful antics with her canine companions, reveling in the joy of shared moments. Whether it's tossing toys around in the yard or engaging in spirited play indoors, Ellie's playful energy is infectious. This active girl is ready to embark on adventures with a loving family of her own. Ideal for a household that enjoys outdoor activities like hiking or running, Ellie is a fantastic companion on a leash, showcasing her well-behaved nature. With a quick grasp of basic commands and a keen intelligence, Ellie is eager to learn and adapt to her forever home. Ellie is already housebroken, sleeps peacefully at night with her furry siblings or in a kennel, and can be left alone during the day. However, she thrives in an environment where her human companions are present for more extended periods, as being left alone for more than 6 hours may not suit her well. A fenced yard would be an added bonus for this active girl. Scheduled for spaying on Valentine's Day, February 14th, 2024, Ellie is up to date with her shots and in excellent health. Her foster mom considers her the perfect dog, and it's easy to see why. Ellie's only challenge, currently being worked on, is getting comfortable with car rides. Rest assured, Ellie's gentle nature and lack of a mean bone in her make her an ideal addition to any loving home. If you're ready to welcome a resilient, affectionate, and playful companion into your life, Ellie is waiting to shower you with love and joy.
